Card 1Matter

What is matter?

Answer

Matter is anything that takes up space and has weight. Everything around us — like books, water, and air — is made of matter. There are three states: solid, liquid, and gas.

Card 2Matter

Name the three states of matter.

Answer

The three states of matter are solid, liquid, and gas. Example: Ice (solid), water (liquid), and steam (gas).

Card 3Air as Gas

Is air a solid, liquid, or gas?

Answer

Air is a gas. It has no fixed shape or volume and can move freely in all directions.

Card 4Properties of Air

Why can't we see air?

Answer

We can't see air because it is transparent and made of tiny particles that are too small to be seen with our eyes.

Card 5Evidence of Air

How do we know air exists if we can't see it?

Answer

We know air exists because we can feel it (like wind), breathe it, and see its effects — like leaves moving or balloons filling up.

Card 6Air Properties

What happens when you blow air into a balloon?

Answer

The balloon expands because air fills it and takes the shape of the balloon. This shows air has no fixed shape.

Card 7Air Has Weight

Does air have weight?

Answer

Yes, air has weight. An inflated balloon weighs more than a deflated one because of the air inside.

Card 8Experiment - Air Weight

Describe an experiment to show that air has weight.

Answer

Tie an inflated balloon on one side of a ruler and a deflated balloon on the other. Balance them on a string. The side with the inflated balloon goes down, proving air has weight.
